That assumption will allow MinGW-w64 to link with the appropriate MSVCRT versions for extention building without anything breaking.
If that works, then the same technique should allow CPython itself to be built in a VS-compatible way with mingw, shouldn't it? Those objecting to a mingw-built python seem to be assuming that such a thing will necessarily be incompatible with VS builds, but I don't see why that has to be the case. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
